systemc: Implement signal based resets.

The implementation is based on sc_event sensitivities.

Also of note is that the way reset works in the Accellera
implementation isn't consistent with the spec. That says that
wait(int n) is supposed to be equivalent to calling wait() n times,
assuming n is greater than 0.

Instead, Accellera stores that count and then doesn't wake up the
process until the count is 0, decrementing it otherwise.

That means that when the process is in reset, it won't actually reset
for those intermediate wait()s which it would if wait() was called
repeatedly. Also, oddly, when a reset becomes asserted, it will clear
the count to 0 explicitly. That may have been an attempt to make the
behavior of wait(int n) match the spec, but it doesn't handle cases
where the reset is already set when wait(int n) is called.
